<!-- target: hello.txt -->

<!--
Some pages (*cough* Reddit *cough*) insert a target=_blank *after* a link was
clicked, which is early enough for the browser to try and open a new tab, but
too late for hints to notice. This means the page won't be opened at all when
javascript-can-open-windows is false.
